Emergency Response: Philippines WASH Manager


Save the Children is the world's leading independent organisation for children. We work in 120 countries. We save children's lives; we fight for their rights; we help them fulfil their potential.

We work together, with our partners, to inspire breakthroughs in the way the world treats children and to achieve immediate and lasting change in their lives.

In response to the current situation in the Philippines, Save the Children is in the process of putting together a team to support our emergency response. We are looking for an experienced WASH Manager to provide operational expertise and support to our upscale around the country. Successful individuals will ensure management of a WASH related project or component in the one of our field offices in Ormoc Estanica or Tacloban, where you will be expected to support on sectoral assessment, project planning, coordination, and support fundraising, recruitment and procurement.
We are looking to contract an individual for 6 months with the possibility of extension thereafter.
We are interested in hearing from you if you have strong experience of working in a similar role in an emergency or you can demonstrate experience of working in similarly complex countries or environments (please outline this in your cover letter).

We offer candidates a competitive salary package which includes both medical insurance, accommodation and other benefits for the duration of their contract.

Please note that the closing date for applications is 14th January 2014 (If you have submitted an application to support the Philippines already you do not need to re-apply, we will automatically consider your application)

To apply, please send a covering letter along with up-to-date CV as a single word or pdf document to neil.14456.999@savethechildrenint.aplitrak.com.
Please note: due to the critical nature of this recruitment, applications will be reviewed as they are received and successful candidates contacted on an on-going basis.

We need to keep children safe so our selection process reflects our commitment to the protection of children from abuse.
